Yes divergent! In my top 5. Throne of Glass tourted me, put me in multiple reading slumps and made me take so many breaks. I'm warning you, DON'T

Hmm, I understand how hunger games might be enjoyable but for me, it was an overrated two star. Definitely recommend reading it's a better counterpart, Divergent.
